OMG!!

I nearly JUST fainted. I heard "Wishbone" by Physical Therapy from 1995 at :48. Talk about a blast from the past!

This rocks in so many ways I can't even comprehend.

What are the times for the different dayparts again?

We were lucky at my school. We offered Arabic, Chinese, German,  French, Latin and Spanish. I took a little french and latin for five years. It was great. Our school requires Honor Graduates to take 3 years of the same foreign language. I assumed other places have similar requirements

Okay, not cool.  I took five years of French but probably would have dumped some electives to take both French and German.  2 year (4 terms) requirement for any diploma that is "advanced" in Indiana.

Yeah they were when they beta tested the current SD Intellistar version back in 2007. tpirfan28's area was one of the headends to receive the upgrade

Correct.  Mine might have been pushed toward the top since it was a fairly new unit (installed just a year and a half prior).  I couldn't even test this time even if asked because I don't even have TWC HD yet...

The major plus of this is the always-on radar during the Local.  Great feature.  The rest...I donno.

Wow so Apple is holding a press conference to presumably address the iPhone 4 reception issue. Apple admitting they did something wrong? This I gotta see!

Now don't get too excited...it's just an iPhone 4 event.  I totally expect Apple to play an holy-than-thou attitude and just drop the price of it.\

I just hope they hold this conference the right way...

If not get on the online chat or use a Twitter hashtag of #Comcast and be very polite and ask why you've lost a bunch of HD channels.  Key word is VERY VERY POLITE.

I need to get my wisdom teeth removed, and I have a question... how long do you have to wait before you can start driving again after surgery? Do you think it would be safe to do so the next day?

Trust me, you'll know.  I'd wait a day or two.

No real bridges or tunnels around here.  Longest span I went across was the Wabash River on US 52.

When my iPhone stopped responding to touch it was a shade less than 48 hours from the start of the call to when I had a new phone in my hands.

Amazing how most Americans are uninterested in the World Cup compared to the rest of the world

That's because soccer sucks (to everyone).

I've watched every match and it's been great.  Sadly my French team has figured out a way to implode on itself...
